Big Freedia Announces New Album Pressing Onward, Tour
Big Freedia has announced that her new album, Pressing Onward, is coming out in early 2017. Before the bounce ambassador releases her second full-length, she’s heading out on the road with fellow New Orleans artists Tank and the Bangas. Freedia’s sets will feature a live backing band. Find those dates, plus the video for the Diplo and DJ Snake-assisted track “Drop,” below.
Recently, Freedia faced charges for theft of government funds. Last month, she avoided jail time and was sentenced to three years probation.
